From Wikipedia: "Highly influential book that provided recipes from multiple sources and emphasized the science and nutritional aspects of cooking. It also help set the pattern of how cookbooks and recipes were to be formulated with consistent measurements and is a fore-runner to the Fannie Farmer's The Boston Cooking School Cookbook. The complete course of instruction taught by Mary and her colleagues at the Boston Cooking School was available in this book, including how to set up a cooking school of one's own, including examination questions, necessary equipment, topics for lectures, books of reference, and the course of instruction."
